My suggestion, politely lobby editors to adopt actual (and well
documented) standards, rather than popular software. They are smart folk
who may be emotionally involved with their word processors, but can grasp
the elementary (elemental?) beauty of common standards. That is what the
word only policy attempts, after all.

Lyx sorts for printing (including screen dvi, ps or pdf). To print the raw

tools also sort. But your question was aobut output. That is automatic.

Assuming *NIX,

the above is clearly a preferred choice. Tkbibtex and pybliographer(ic?)
worked well for me and, except for minor problems that I think related to
